PREFACE 

In  consulting  this  list  its  limitations  of  date  should  be  kept  in  mind.  With  a 
very  few  exceptions,  to  be  mentioned  later,  it  includes  no  works  earlier  than  1904, 
the  date  of  the  original  Catalog,  and  less  than  a  half  dozen  1912  works,  which  have 
been  added  where  there  existed  no  book  of  earlier  date  that  was  equally  good. 

The  general  pjan  of  the  Catalog  and  the  routine  of  cooperation  in  the  selection  of 
titles  practically  coincide  with  those  of  the  original  work  (see  p.  6,  8  of  Editorial 
preface  to  Class  list)  except  that  the  whole  routine,  from  the  preliminary  selection 
to  the  final  preparation  for  printing,  has  remained  in  the  hands  of  one  person.  The 
list  of  cooperating  librarians  and  experts  has  been  much  less  extensive,  OAving  to  the 
fact  that  in  the  A.  L.  A.  Booklist  the  editor  had  at  hand  a  body  of  titles,  covering 
nearly  the  whole  period,  which  had  already  had  the  benefit  of  a  certain  amount  of 
cooperative  opinion. 

All  titles  have  been  submitted  to  the  publishers  for  latest  information,  so  that  the 
list  should  be  dependable  for  prices.  As  a  result  of  this  examination  by  publishers 
a  considerable  number  of  useful  works  have  had  to  be  rejected  because  out  of  print, 
but,  as  a  whole,  the  Catalog  has  suffered  less  in  this  respect  than  the  1904  publica- 
tion did. 

Classification.  The  sixth  edition  (1899)  of  the  Decimal  Classification  has  been 
followed.  This  decision  was  made  on  the  understanding  that  the  smaller  libraries 
had  not  to  any  extent  adopted  the  seventh  edition.  It  is  to  be  hoped  that  when  the 
revision  of  the  1904  Catalog  is  undertaken  there  may  be  at  hand  a  complete  revised 
edition  of  the  "D.  C."  simplified  for  the  requirements  of  the  smaller  libraries.  The 
larger  libraries  which  have  adopted  the  new  edition  need  no  help  in  classification. 
Titles  have  been  more  minutely  classified  than  the  small  library  practice  demands, 
for  two  reasons:  (1)  the  closer  classification  makes  the  list  of  greater  value  for 
reference  purposes;  (2)  the  majority  of  libraries  using  the  Catalog  subdivide  more 
closely  than  the  small  library  and  it  is  a  simpler  matter  to  reduce  a  number  than 
to  expand  it. 

Subject  headings.  The  addition  of  subject  headings  (not  given  in  the  Class 
list  of  the  1904  Catalog)  was  determined  on  before  the  decision  to  print  only  a  class 
list  was  made.  It  has  been  a  frequent  request  from  the  librarians  of  smaller  li- 
braries, who  need  help  in  this  matter  and  who  found  it  difficult  to  find  the  headings 
chosen  for  the  Dictionary  list  in  the  1904  Catalog.  The  new  edition  of  the  List  of 
subject  headings  has  been  followed,  with  some  additions.  It  is  quite  possible  that 
not  as  many  headings  are  suggested  as  many  libraries  use,  an  effort  having  been 
made  to  follow  a  medium  course  between  the  duplication  and  very  full  analysis  that 
only  the  very  small  library  can  afford  and  the  briefer  entry  of  the  large  library, 
with  its  elaborate  cross  reference  system.  Where  the  subjects  of  analytics  are 
easily  ascertainable,  they  are  only  recommended.    Neither  the  classification  nor  sug-

gestions  for  headings  should  be  taken  too  seriously.  There  are  many  books  which 
can  be  classed  with  perfect  consistency  in  any  one  of  three  or  four  places.  The  li- 
brarian alone  can  decide  which  is  the  proper  place  in  her  library.  The  same  can  be 
said  of  the  choice  of  subject  headings. 

Notes.     In  quoting  notes  the  phraseology  has  been  freely  changed  for  the  sake 
of  brevity,  and  no  attempt  has  been  made  to  indicate  omissions. 

Proportion  by  subject.  "While  in  the  beginning  the  attempt  was  made  to 
adhere  fairly  closely  to  the  proportion  of  titles  to  each  subject  given  in  the  1904 
*  Catalog,  it  was  found  impossible  to  do  so  without  impairing  the  usefulness  of  the 
list.  The  output  of  books  in  the  subjects  grouped  under  Sociology  has  been  so 
great,  and  the  demand  for  them  so  heavy,  that  it  seemed  better  to  include  a  larger 
number  than  was  originally  planned  rather  than  risk  weakening  the  usefulness  of 
the  section.  The  greatest  increase  has  been  in  Useful  Arts,  and  this  was  intentional, 
since  there  is  no  division  where  the  average  librarian  is  more  in  need  of  help,  nor 
where  it  is  more  difficult  to  find  the  "best  book"  on  short  notice.  The  proportions 
for  the  1904  and  the  present  Catalog  are  printed  here  for  ease  of  comparison.

In  the  1904  Catalog  the  children's  books  were  included  in  the  main  list.  The  num- 
ber of  volumes  cited  for  this  Catalog  does  not  include  titles  mentioned  in  the  notes. 

Special  lists.  Two  special  lists  are  incorporated  in  the  Catalog,  both  in  answer 
to  definite  requests.  One  is  a  selection  of  about  50  titles  of  religious  books  specially 
chosen  for  Catholic  readers.  Two  preliminary  selections  were  made,  one  by  an  as- 
sistant in  the  St.  Louis  PubHc  Library  at  the  request  of  the  librarian,  Dr  A.  E. 
Bostwick,  and  the  second  by  Rev.  W.  J.  McMuUen  of  Pittsburgh,  at  the  request  of  the 
librarian  of  the  Carnegie  Library  of  Pittsburgh,  Mr  H.  "W";,  Craver.  Both  lists  were 
then  incorporated  into  a  much  more  extensive  one,  covering  all  subjects,  compiled  by 
Mr  "William  Stetson  Merrill,  of  the  Newberry  Library.  The  final  selection,  limited 
with  a  few  exceptions  to  religious  books,  was  submitted  to  Archbishop  Ireland,  and 
at  his  request  was  examined  by  the  Reverend  J.  A.  Ryan,  of  the  St.  Paul  Seminary, 
St.  Paul,  Minn. 


PREFACE  7 

The  second  list  consists  of  about  50  titles  of  modern  drama  and  books  about  it. 
It  was  impossible  to  get  any  unanimity  of  opinion  on  such  a  brief  selection  and  the 
editor  is  aware  that  it  will  satisfy  a  very  small  proportion  of  libraries.  It  is  allowed 
to  stand,  however,  for  the  assistance  it  may  give  to  the  perplexed  librarian  of  the 
smaller  library.  In  most  libraries  the  selection  in  this  subject  must  be  based  largely 
on  the  local  demand,  and  if  activity  in  play-writing  and  reading  continues  to  increase 
as  rapidly  as  in  the  last  two  years  the  problem  of  selection  bids  fair  to  rival  that  of 
fiction. 

Selection.  It  is  hardly  to  be  imagined  that  any  one  ever  prepared  a  list  of  this 
character  and  extent  without  wishing  to  ask  the  indulgence  of  possible  critics  and 
to  explain  why  it  is  so  much  farther  from  perfection  than  it  was  expected  to  be.  It 
seems  a  fairly  simple  task  to  select  3000  titles  from  the  books  published  in  eight 
years,  but  a  list  based  on  the  cooperation  of  about  75  librarians  and  100  experts,  all 
fully  engaged  with  their  own  work,  and  selected,  edited  and  prepared  for  printing 
in  intervals  of  work  having  a  prior  claim,  is  bound  to  progress  but  slowly  and  to 
suffer  many  changes  of  fortune.  One  needs  to  have  been  this  sort  of  clearing  house 
of  opinion  but  once  to  realize  how  far  apart  our  libraries  are  in  the  matter  of  book 
selection.  In  many  cases  what  is  one  library's  meat  seems  to  be  another's  poison, 
and  one  soon  reaches  the  conviction  that  there  are  no  "best  books"  on  any  subject 
for  a  library  of  any  size— if  librarians  alone  are  to  be  consulted.  Happily,  pro- 
fessors, special  students  and  experts  in  general  are  less  at  variance.  It  is  only  fair 
to  say  that  the  Fiction  and  Children's  lists  represent  librarians'  votes  only.  It  is 
to  be  doubted  if  the  Fiction,  at  least,  would  have  retained  the  proper  amount  of 
"light  reading"  if  it  had  passed  through  the  hands  of  literature  professors.  If  it 
does  not  prove  a  good  "working"  selection  the  editor  will  be  greatly  disappointed, 
for  it  was  on  that  ground  alone  that  many  titles  escaped  the  deleting  pencil. 

Acknowledgments.  First  the  editor  wishes  to  express  her  gratitude  to  the 
men  and  women  who,  without  the  special  interest  to  be  expected  of  librarians,  gave 
of  their  valuable  time— some  of  them  with  great  generosity— in  order  to  perfect  the 
selection  in  their  special  subjects.  That  not  all  the  titles  recommended  are  included, 
nor  all  the  titles  receiving  adverse  criticism  thrown  out,  does  not  argue  that  their 
opinions  were  not  seriously  considered,  but  is  due  to  the  many  limitations  of  such  a 
list- in  number  of  titles,  date,  expense,  availability,  degree  of  difficulty  or  special 
nature  of  the  books.  In  Philosophy  and  Ethics,  thanks  are  due  Professors  Hugo

Cordial  thanks  are  extended  also  to  the  librarians  and  library  assistants,  representing 
large  and  medium-sized  libraries  in  all  parts  of  the  country  except  the  extreme 
South,  who  criticized  the  preliminary  lists.  Individual  mention  must  be  made  of 
those  of  whom  assistance  was  requested  in  special  subjects  because  of  their  extensive 
acquaintance  with  the  literature :  Mr  A,  C.  Tilton,  formerly  in  charge  of  the  docu- 
mjent  department  of  the  Wisconsin  State  Historical  Library,  who  made  the  first  se- 
lection of  government  documents ;  Mr  E,  H.  Virgin,  librarian  of  General  Theological 
Seminary,  New  York,  and  Mr  A.  C.  Zenos,  librarian  of  McCormick  Theological  Semi- 
nary, Chicago,  for  criticism  of  the  titles  in  Religion,  and  Mr  W.  S.  Merrill,  head 
classifier  of  the  Newberry  Library,  Chicago,  for  assistance  in  the  selection  of  Catholic 
books;  Miss  Elizabeth  Baldwin,  librarian  of  Teachers  College,  New  York,  and  Miss 
Irene  Warren,  librarian  of  the  School  of  Education  of  the  University  of  Chicago,  who 
criticized  the  books  on  Education;  Miss  0.  M.  Imhoff,  of  the  Legislative  Referent?e 
Department  of  the  Wisconsin  Library  Commission,  for  aid  in  the  selection  of  titles 
in  Sociology  and  Government;  Mr  E.  H.  McClelland,  technology  librarian  of  the 
Carnegie  Library  of  Pittsburgh,  and  Mr  E.  D.  Tweedell,  reference  librarian  of  the 
John  Crerar  Library,  Chicago,  who  gave  very  generously  of  their  time  to  the  selec- 
tion in  Science  and  Useful  arts ;  Mr  G.  W.  Lee,  librarian  of  Stone  &  Webster,  Boston, 
and  ]Miss  L,  B.  Krause,  librarian  of  H.  M.  Byllesby  &  Co.,  Chicago,  for  criticism 
of  Engineering  works;  Miss  C.  R.  Bamett,  librarian  of  the  U.  S.  Department  of 
Agriculture,  and  Mr  Clarence  Hean,  librarian  of  the  College  of  Agriculture  Library 
of  the  University  of  Wisconsin,  for  criticism  of  Agriculture  titles;  Mr  E.  R.  Smith, 
librarian  of  the  Avery  Architectural  Library  of  Columbia  University,  and  Miss 
Katharine  Patten,  librarian  of  the  Minneapolis  Athenaeum,  for  criticism  of  the  Fine

arts  list;  Miss  L.  M.  Hooper,  librarian  of  the  Brookline  (Mass.)  Public  Library,  for 
criticism  of  the  Music  list;  Dr  R.  G.  Thwaites,  director  of  the  State  Historical  So- 
ciety of  Wisconsin,  for  criticism  of  the  titles  in  American  history  and  travel;  Dr 
B.  C.  Steiner,  librarian  of  Enoch  Pratt  Free  Library,  for  criticism  of  the  titles  in 
American  history  and  biography. 

Acknowledgment  is  made  of  the  services  of  the  Annotation  Section  of  the  New 
York  State  Library,  and  especially  of  its  head,  IVIiss  M.  T.  Wheeler,  in  selecting  and 
mounting  titles  of  current  works  to  be  used  as  a  basis  for  the  proposed  supplement 
to  the  1904  Catalog,  from  the  time  of  the  publication  of  that  work  to  the  summer  of 
1909,  when  with  the  decision  to  have  the  later  catalog  prepared  directly  under  the 
auspices  of  the  A.  L.  A.  Publishing  Board,  this  valuable  material  was  transferred 
to  the  editor.  Of  even  greater  assistance  have  been  the  files  of  the  annual  Best  hooks 
lists,  which  have  been  drawn  on  very  considerably  for  notes. 

To  Mrs  H.  L,  Elmendorf,  vice-librarian  of  the  Buffalo  Public  Library  and  presi- 
dent of  the  American  Library  Association,  appointed  from  the  A.  L.  A.  Publishing 
Board  as  the  committee  of  one  to  whom  all  questions  of  policy  and  details  of  execu- 
tion could  be  submitted,  grateful  recognition  is  made  for  the  willingness  and  prompt- 
ness with  which  she  has  met  all  requests  for  advice  or  assistance.  Gratitude  is  also 
due  to  the  three  regular  assistants  of  the  A.  L.  A.  Booklist  staff,  to  whom  for  some 
portion  of  each  month  during  the  past  year  this  Catalog  has  meant  an  extra  burden, 
to  be  met  only  by  additional  hours  of  work.

The  Catholic  encyclopedia  (1907-11,  15v.,  Robert 
Appleton  $6  ea)  Is  very  desirable  for  libraries  able 
to  afford  its  purchase  or  to  secure  it  as  a  sift.  It 
serves  in  place  of  many  individual  works,  v.  1—13 
now  published    (April   1912) 

The  books  selected  for  Catholic  readers  have  been 
chosen  without  regard  to  the  date  limitations.  As

Bradford's  Lee,  the  American  (Houghton,  1912,

ates and  glimpses  of  his  private  life.  Written  by 
a  close  political  and  personal  friend,  it  shows 
great  admiration  of  the  man  and  his  ability  but 
also  a  just  recognition  of  his  mistakes  and  In- 
herent weaknesses.

man,  his  ideas,  his  works;  tr.  by  Clementina 
Black.      1905.     329p.  illus.  Button  $4  n 

Enthusiastic  account,  which  has  received  the 
approval  of  the  sculptor,  whose  own  explanation 
of  his  aims  and  theories  Is  a  valuable  feature. 
Lawton's  Life  and  work  of  Aufjuste  Rodin  (Scrib- 
ner, 1907,  307p.,  $3.75  n,  7-13425)  is  an  able, 
painstaking  record  based  on  talks  with  Rodin  and 
on   documents   in    Rodin's   possession.     A   briefer 


life  by  the  same  author   (Kennerley,  1908,  190p., 
$1  n,  8-35518)  Is  not  an  abridgment  of  the  former 
work    though    written    from    the    same    viewpoint 
and  will  answer  the  smaller  library's  need.

Roosevelt:  a  portrait  sketch  (Appleton'shist.

Devoted  chiefly  to  Roosevelt's  public  life  to 
1904,  enlivened  by  many  anecdotes  and  written  by 
a  trained  but  uncritical  observer,  who  has  long 
been  the  ex-president's  intimate  friend.  Morgan's 
Theodore  Roosevelt  (Macmlllan,  1907,  324p., 
$1.50  n,  7-31182)  is  a  straightforward,  rather 
mechanical  narrative  of  the  episodes  of  Roose-

contributed  to  It  what  he  calls  a  "mass  of  un- 
ceremonious and  irresponsible  autobiography." 
Despite  its  questionable  taste  the  book  is  a  de-  ■

Shaw   has   interested   himself.
